Brooksfield School Celebrates New Home At Lewinsville Presbyterian

MCLEAN, VA — Brooksfield School, a Montessori program serving children ages 2 to 5, hosted a ribbon-cutting on Monday to celebrate its new home at Lewinsville Presbyterian Church.

“We are thrilled to begin this next chapter in Brooksfield’s history,” said Mary Anne Duffus, director and founder of Brooksfield School. “Our new location allows us to continue providing a warm and engaging Montessori environment for young children in and around the McLean community. We are deeply grateful to Lewinsville Presbyterian Church for welcoming us to their beautiful campus.”

For 38 years, Brooksfield School was located at 1830 Kirby Road in McLean. However, when the school's lease was not renewed last fall, it needed to find a new home. Fortunately, they found one and relocated to 1724 Chain Bridge Road in McLean, on the campus of Lewinsville Presbyterian Church. The school currently serves more than 135 students and employs 38 faculty and staff.

Roughly 30 families, alumni and community members attended Monday's ceremony, including Rev. Dr. Scott Ramsey and Rev. Jen Dunfee of Lewinsville Presbyterian Church and Supervisor Jimmy Bierman, Jr. (D-Dranesville). In addition to the ribbon-cutting, the event included remarks by local officials and tours of the school.
